A good guess, but no. Different designer and brand.
I suppose it's something from the US of A?

Of a similar intended (mid-engine) configuration, but otherwise, no.

Not an AMX
Anything to do with BMW?
Per my answer to Allemano, it's from the US of A.
Not a BMW
Is it a Ford project?
An American kit car project in that case.

For and by one of the US Big 3
Sometimes I wonder, why these puzzles stall when they do. :scratch:
The next couple of guesses, at least, should be easy to formulate and proffer...
By one of the Chrysler brands?

Because lots of us are in different time zones! When you give an answer, most of us European guys are asleep!

Not that, but you're not far off.
Locked for you.
Open to all.
1979 Chrysler FR1 - Steve Bollinger
That's it.
Originally sketched with proportions that suggested a mid mid-engine layout, the K-car drivetrain in the later running prototype was left up front. The drawing's gull wings were also scrapped.
I hadn't merged it because the original puzzle was a drawing whilst mine was a picture of the actual car.
Same vehicle, I know, but I rather thought not exactly the same thing...
question time : does Chrysler FR1 has another name/offspring ?
for example , something with title of Dodge or Eagle ?or other brand ?
---upgrade : l guess it's offspring of Coggiola Janus Coupe - 1978
